I knew that Balder's Gate 3 would be taking most of the awards, which is absolutely fine since it deserves every one that it got. It was fun watching The Game Awards, but being the Sega fan I am the most hyped I got during the event was when Sega revealed that we're getting a new Golden Axe game as it's been way too long since we got a new one! Plus a 3D Streets of Rage game?! SoR 4 originally was going to be a 3D game, which turned into Fighting Force. Also the announcement of OD got me hyped too!

I am also stoked for a new Golden Axe. I am little concerned since the last time they tried to reboot the franchise we got this;

 

FYI, I have played this and it really is as bad as everyone says it is

 

Still, I feel like keeping my hopes high for this new one.

I haven't played the majority of those games. Baldur's Gate 3 looks cool. Is that game worth it to play as single player? If so, I'm gonna have to check it out.

I've played these 4 above. 

I will say that I am interested in Baldur's Gate 3 and Alan Wake now that I've looked into them more. And I am also highly anticipating FF7 Rebirth. I've also been a fan of Street Fighter in the past, as well as Zelda, and since I want to get a PSVR2 soon then maybe the Resident Evil game might be worth a gander.

Good question. I imagine it is just fine as a single player game.
